Unrockable, Unshockable

Dear Friends
Sharing a Short story

One day, as the Buddha was preaching, a man spat on and verbally abused him. What did the Buddha do? He remained very quiet and very still while the man continued his abusive tirade, in the end merely asking, 'Do you have anything else to say?' The following day, the same man came up to him, fell at his feet and begged forgiveness. The man said, 'All night long, I could not sleep for the abuses I hurled at Your Holiness. Please forgive me.' The Buddha replied, 'Forgive whom? For what? You are not the same person as the one who abused me yesterday. You have realised and changed. So, whom should I forgive? The 'you' of today needs no forgiving and the 'you' of yesterday is no longer with us. That which happened is like water in a river. It is long since gone, and the river is still flowing.' This is the Buddha's message: be calm and move on. Do not react. Be calm and move on. Let us be filled with spirituality, with God, with love and with piety, so that there is no room for us to be affected by little, little things. Let us realise the true, temporary and illusory nature of the material world and, instead, dedicate ourselves to Truth, to God, to spirituality, and let us give, give whatever we have to others. This is how we lead contented lives

Kind Regards

So, the lady went to visit a counselor to seek out happiness. The counselor called over the old lady who cleaned the office floors. The counselor then said to the rich lady "I'm going to ask Mary here to tell u how she found happiness. All I want u to do is listen to her." So the old lady put down her broom and sat on a chair and told her story: "Well, my husband died of malaria and three months later my only son was killed by a car. I had nobody. I had nothing left. I couldn't sleep, I couldn't eat, I never smiled at anyone, I even thought of taking my own life. Then one evening a little kitten followed me home from work. Somehow I felt sorry for that kitten. It was cold outside, so I decided to let the kitten in. I got some
